The University of Lagos (UNILAG) has suspended one of its lecturers, Boniface Igbeneghu, who was caught on camera demanding sex from an investigative reporter who posed as an admission seeker in the institution.
In the same vein, the Foursquare Gospel Church, where Igbeneghu is a senior pastor has announced the suspension of the lecturer from its body on Monday.
The randy lecturer was exposed in a “Sex For Grades” documentary released on Monday by BBC Africa Eye which focused on tertiary intuitions in West Africa.
In its reaction, the Foursquare Gospel Church said it has asked Igbeneghu to step down from all ministerial assignments.
“The attention of the leadership of The Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria has been drawn to a video clip trending on social media platforms titled ‘Sex for grades: Undercover in West Africa Universities – BBC News’ wherein a lecturer in University of Lagos named Dr. Boniface Igbeneghu also described as a pastor in Foursquare Gospel Church was allegedly involved in sexual misconduct with some female students of the University,” the statement read.
“The general public is hereby informed that as a holiness and Bible-believing Church, we do not condone such heinous and unscriptural act among our ministers. We totally dissociate ourselves from the purported conduct of Dr. Igbeneghu and promise to take appropriate measure as soon as the ongoing investigation is concluded.
“Meanwhile, the pastor in question has been asked to step down from all ministerial assignments.”
